This is great. I'm midway into an install that reproduces your configuration right now. Widevine and other RPi binaries should now be possible to execute.

I'm also a weirdo, and seem to be preferring the original trackpad firmware to the update for dragging, etc. Glad I have 2 PBPs for these experiments.

Good news on this front! My armhf userland install works great on the ISO PBP, including encrypted LUKS. One of the problems of the pure aarch64 installation is a non-launching Firefox. This is solved matching the mrfixit-style dual arch. This means Wildvine will work with some pipefitting, too.

Incidentally, choosing a UK 105 KB with a US language and US UTF-8 locale at install gave me perfect keybindings, and the £ key and # key are on their marked locations. Good for any North Americans installing Debian on their ISO machines.
